This involves connecting the PC's parallel port to a 1541 disk drive using a special conversion cable. The XM1541 is the newest of this series of cables going back to the venerable X1541; there's also XA1541 and XE1541 cables depending on the application. Virtually all are supported by a DOS program called the Star Commander, used for transferring disk images, and another called 64HDD that allows the PC to appear as a giant disk drive to the Commodore. http://sta.c64.org/ http://www.64hdd.com/ -- ---------------------------------- personal: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Floodgap Systems Ltd * So.
